14th Century Charm

I had a really good stay - the breakfast and service was excellent and room very comfortable. I did find the room a little too warm though. The main light was not working and there were no rubber bath mats to stand on in the shower. I was however given a bath towel to use instead. I was hoping to make use of the extra pillows in the wardrobe, but unfortunately there was a vomit-like smell in the wardrobe which had permeated the pillows. Consequently I didn't hang any clothes in there. The staff were lovely and I was made to feel very welcome. I would return if visiting that part of the country again.

Lovely old building, but the uneven floors means that the beds may or may not be level which made it a little hard for me to sleep.

This is a very run down hotel. I was put in the annex area so I can’t speak for the rooms in the pub. The room I was in (room 16) was very dated, the bathroom was not nice. There seems to be holes in the floor around the toilet which they have replaced but not put in properly. There is a strong smell in the room of mustiness and uncleanliness. The bathroom wasn’t cleaned before I arrived as the toilet was not flushed, there was hair in the sink and the toilet roll hadn’t been changed. The bed is lumpy and uncomfortable. I can’t say I will come back here again and it’s not worth the cost.
